This is the team jacket with back patch of the Midwestern Pioneers. The extra patches were briefly sold to "select" fans through the Pioneer Boosters Club. (I'm not sure exactly what this is but I'm guessing some sort of fan club.) The Midwestern Pioneers was sometimes called the Chicago Pioneers -- teams reformed and rebranded a lot as the years went by.
Roller Derby Patches is also on Facebook. Join us there.
This site is run by Stephen ("Axis of Stevil") Lorimor. If you enjoy it, please consider supporting the site.
1. Submit pictures -- both new patches and better pictures of what's on our site.
2. Email me with your comments, corrections, bug reports, suggestions, pictures, etc. You can also message me on Facebook.
3. Donate extra patches. This website (and the database of patches) required more than a hundred hours to build and the website costs money to run.
Like all of derby, this is a labor of love so I won't ask for money... but I will accept donations of derby patches. You can send your extras to:
Stephen Lorimor
50 Springholm Drive
Berkeley Heights, NJ 07922
USA
All patch donations will someday be bequeathed to a suitable roller derby history archive for future generations to enjoy.
If you include a note with your name (derby or otherwise) I'll give you a shout out on the website.
